Surface Phone latest specs leaked!
Microsoft is working hard on the next smartphone, that is for sure. Now, we have received some updates about the Surface Phone latest specs. The new smartphone from Microsoft is likely to be powered by a Snapdragon 835 chipset, the latest and most powerful Snapdragon in the market. It has just been revealed recently by Qualcomm. The phone will run on Windows 10 Mobile, obviously, and it will be 64-bit.
According to this report, there seems to be two versions of the new Surface Phone. One will be equipped with 6GB RAM, nd this version will be able to run 86 apps in Continuum mode. However, this one cannot run x86 apps by default, and can only install them. Once it is connected via Continuum, then it will be able to run x86 apps. The other version will have 4GB RAM, which will still run Snapdragon 835. This one, while also has Windows 10 Mobile OS, will not be able to run x86 apps. One can speculate that one version will be for consumers, while the other for businesses. From observation, both versions seem to sport 5.5″ QHD screen.
The new Surface Phone is supposed to run on the updated Redstone 3 version of Windows 10. Redstone 3 has been reported to be even bigger than the huge Redstone 2 update. For Redstone 3, developers are prioritizing on the Mobile OS more. Because of that, the release date of the phone will be pushed back to late 2017, for the update to be implemented. Once released, the new Surface Phone will have Windows 10 Mobile Redstone 3 out of the box.

Even though the release date has been pushed back, we can still look forward to this new phone.Please note that all these leaks are about the prototype of the phone; the released version may have some differences!
